Creating a theme for your event..
I find that couples are looking into creating themes for
every event associated with their wedding.
They don’t only create a theme for their reception but also all of the
pre wedding events. I have seen many
different ideas brought to the table and wanted to share a couple of my
favorites.
The first theme and by far the most used is the Moroccan
theme. I love this theme because of all
of the different elements you can bring into the space to change the space into
a Moroccan oasis. By creating clusters of
seating arrangements around the dance floor with hookah lounges you can engage
your guests. You can erect small tents
over certain tables throughout the space and bring in large potted plants into
the space to create an outdoor atmosphere.
Another theme that I really love is the masquerade ball
theme. Guests can start by picking up
their masks on their way into the event space.
On tables you can add feathers, masks and lots of candles to elevate the
experience for your guests. Adding a
step and repeat for photo opportunities adds an element of fun for your guests
and hiring stilt walkers, or aerialists will really give the wow factor to the
event.
A third favorite theme is a Hawaiian or Luau theme. Start by having the event on the beach or
another outdoor location (just be mindful about the weather). Lay out leis for your guests to wear and have
tropical drinks on hand with little umbrellas in them. Hire Polynesian dancers for entertainment and
have your guests learn how to hula dance to engage your guests.
There are so many different ideas to think about when
creating any theme. The best thing to do
is explore all of the different options including menu, drinks, and
entertainment to create that extra special night for everyone to enjoy.
